The protocol is adjusted to the physical limitations of the receiver's detection apparatus.


The receiver tells the sender the quantum efficiency and dark count rate of his detectors.
The receiver conveys to the sender the experimental imperfections of his detectors i.e. the quantum efficiency and dark count rate.


The sender then tells the intensity of the light pulses she will use, the fraction of these pulses she will expect him to
The sender conveys the intensity of the light pulses she will use which conveys the information about the fraction of sender's pulses that will be detected successfully by the receiver, and the bit error rate she will be willing to correct in his data to compensate for his dark counts and other noise sources in the detector.
